Love it **RickJay**! I _do_ think Eowyn is more Aragorn’s type than Arwen. She has more fire and can kick butt. Arwen is so annoyingly _ethereal_. ---

Eowyn. Except for that one scene of Arwen at the ford. Must be a women with sword thing…. 🙂 ---

If I was a woman looking for a man, I’d say Aragorn But I’m a guy, and so I say Legolas, cause he’s just a few hormone treatments away from being a very pretty girl. And Arwen’s preeeeeety! ---

Many booties have I seen in her travels, but verily, no babies with back like that have I encountered before.” Today at noon on Palantir Channel VI: “My cross species lover dumped me for a much, much, much, much, much, much younger woman!” [30 min.

> [@](#): > > “Why, I’m rather attracted to you, too, Mr. Anderson…” _snort_ _mad, cubicle-shaking laughter_ Ahem. Yes, Elrond, of whom I have had many the bedside fantasy. Rowr. But Aragorn, above all. Blondes make me itch, though Legolas is just about enough to change my mind. Viggo Mortensen out of the Aragorn getup, though? Ehh. Aragorn melts my little knees, though. ---

An addendum to that: Hugo Weaving’s voice. Mmmmmmm. Paired with those grumpy, grumpy eyebrows, it makes me quiver. ---

Legend has it they were shooting a scene with Elrond, his back is turned away from the camera, but he’s all dressed up in his Elrond clothes (natch), he turns towards the camera and he’s wearing those Agent Smith black sunglasses, and he does his whole “Mister Anderson” thing. OM MY GOD I COULD JUST **DIE**. Hubba hubba. I love Hugo Weaving. 🙂 ---

Aragorn V Legolas? Legolas definately… But regarding Eowyn and the Arwen debate, from reading the thread most people seem tp prefer Eowyn, why?? I found her to be really annoying in parts of the movie. At helms deep to Gimli “Lord Aragorn, where is he?” :smack: ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by racinchikki \* > \*\*I don’t like Viggo when he’s not being Aragorn, either - when he’s shaved his face, his funny donut chin is more obvious. Also, he has the worst haircut in the world in the extras off the TTT DVD. \*\* Yeah, it’s the chin that makes him funny-looking. But then, I don’t find him attractive as Aragorn either. He was, however, very yummy as Satan. (he had a nice beard in then, natch, but he was clean…well, when not covered in blood) I couldn’t believe it was the same actor when I realized it upon rewatching **The Prophecy** recently.

I don’y like Eowyn, she’s got some sort of strange bug eye thing happening. And Arwen is a brat. Why doesn’t she just listen to her poor father? Poor Elrond. (_swooons_ again) ---

Aragorn gets my vote. Legolas is great eye candy, but Aragorn simply oozes sex appeal. And ditto to whoever said that he’s not as hot when he’s all cleaned up. 🙂 And, I much prefer Eowyn over Arwen. ---

A tough decision. But after looking at all of these photos: [http://specialrealms.com/VM/viggo.html](http://specialrealms.com/VM/viggo.html) I will have to go with the blonde elf. 😉 ---

Legolas definately. And he is even gorgeous as Orlando Bloom. …and does a pretty mean Will Turner too. Those big pretty eyes… I liked Faramir alot more on the second TT viewing - more than I thought I would actually. ---
